This substantial three-bedroom Victorian end-terrace in Roker offers generous room sizes and striking period features, ideal for buyers wanting character and space near the coast. The property includes a reception hall, lounge with bay window, dining room, kitchen, ground-floor bathroom, and two large first-floor bedrooms plus a ground-floor bedroom/study.
Practical strengths include UPVC double glazing, mains gas central heating, an enclosed rear courtyard with secure off-street parking and no upward chain, making transaction and immediate occupation simpler. The large floor area (c.1,240 sq ft) and deep principal bedrooms give clear scope for a comfortable family layout or a rentable HMO conversion subject to consent.
The house requires cosmetic refurbishment and some renovation to reach modern standards; decorative finishes are dated and some external render shows weathering. The area records higher local crime levels, which buyers should factor into security decisions despite the secure rear shutter and parking.
Positioned close to local amenities, good schools and the seafront, this home suits first-time buyers or families seeking a period property to personalise, and investors willing to add value. Council Tax Band A keeps running costs low. Early viewing is recommended to assess renovation scope and potential.
